She added, "We develop for young women who are going through various life stages who can escape with unique concepts that speak directly to what she and her girlfriends are experiencing in their own lives."

Oxygen's slate of new programming captures women in transitionhood - the most important and pivotal moments of their lives. "Maids of Drama (wt)" is a look at the jockeying and jealousy among members of wedding parties in the months leading up to the big, fabulous day.

The show features young women in two competitive cities -- Boston and Philadelphia. "Lost Angels (wt)" is a docu-series that follows Chloe Lattanzi, daughter of movie star and music icon Olivia Newton-John, as she and her group of friends show hipster Hollywood what it's like to be the opposite of her famous mother's sugar sweet reputation.

Returning for a second season is Oxygen's most watched freshman series, "Hair Battle Spectacular" which pits 10 of America's hottest stylists against each other to see who can deliver the biggest and best in fantasy hair design.
